I have always been told that I looked like my mother. This was reinforced while working at the hospital in Van Buren County. I was able to care for some of mother's coworkers. I even remember a time in Burlington , sitting in the orthodontists office and the attendant called me by mother's name, then realized that I was her daughter.
Dad gave me a small framed picture one Christmas. He asked if I knew who it was. I looked and could have sworn that a picture of me had been taken in old fashion dress..They have a lot of these in Pigeon Forge. I knew that I had not had a picture taken like this. I recognized the way the head was tilted and closed smile..just like me....
Then dad said that he knew that people always said I looked like Nellie, but the picture was of his mother and he recognized that I looked a lot like her. The picture is very special to me.
Does anyone have pictures of dad's mother? I would like to see more. Love, mom
